Now then I am not touting for business but :wink: I have some experience of designing, creating & hosting email & websites :rolling:

Over the past few months I have received an unbelievable amount of both support and practical help by the forum members and I often feel I have little to offer in return although I am learning :whistling:

Although it is not my main job, I do offer email / web hosting, design etc via my website webimpUK :rolling:

So I may be able to help with any issues or if you need advice on such subjects :rolling:

If anyone is looking for email hosting, you will see an offer on the welcome page webimpUK for email+ family I would like to offer established forum members (Top Turner and above if ok with Jim) a further 50% discount, all claims / promises on the web site will be honoured. Anyone interested PM me (don't buy direct from website) :rolling:

A number of forum members (you know who you are :kiss: ) have sent or given me various kits, blanks, tools etc even tuition I would like to offer you the deal for free (for 2 years) if you're interested PM me. This will also be extended to any future gestures that are made or bartered.

Anyone wanting websites, again look at the website the same offer of 50% discount applies with the added plus of no issues about extra pages, email address's bandwidth etc. :rolling:

Please note the above offer does not include for the design supply of large e-commerce sites, the sites offered are of a similar size to the webimpUK site. Any queries please ask away. :thumbs:

All the above is also reliant on Jim being happy with the offer to appear here and the offer may be withdrawn at any time, although any sites / emails agreed would be fully honoured. :thumbs:

Billy, if like me you don't need hosting or domain name etc, but need a site designed with E Commerce with one final fee (Not yearly) is this available also?

Its not something I generally offer but I can do it, a it depends on how many items you will be selling, along with payment options, maintenance such as updating, a chat some time would be a good starting point to see what the client wants and how they expect to update any designed site.

The site I am doing for my pens will be a small e-commerce site with up to around 100 items available with options for commissions etc when pens are not already in stock. It will be something like the webimpUK site but with more stock.

Fantastic offer for those that could use it Billy, I don't sell very commercially as I don't want a job, but if I did I'd be taking you up on an offer like this. Very generous of you mate.

Once I have it sufficiently far on (I am currently sorting out various photos for page headers) I will make it available for all forum members to see (before it goes live) and you will see it evolve :thumbs:

Thats a fantastic offer Billy. Too good to refuse if you haven't already got a site.

Hopefully things will move forward with my web site this weekend and I will get something on here to show you :banana::banana:

I have had a bit of a problem with my PC (posted problem on another thread) and was a little concerned that I had said I would do the offer here and not have the resources to carry out anything I had promised :sob::sob:

But on-wards & upwards, watch this space for links to how the web site progresses :winking::winking:

What do you think of cubecart Billy?

I've been using it now for a few years although have neglected my site now and should tidy it up a bit. If there is anything better I would be interested although cubecart is very easy to use and maintain.

Oh Paul why did you have to put that up, now I am lusting after your Laburnum bullet pen, desperately avoiding the buy button, very very nice (even with the spelling mistake lol)
